Curfew continues parts of state, situation tense[/url]
Quote:With the situation still tense along the Meghalaya-Assam border following ethnic violence in the area, the authorities on Tuesday decided against relaxing the curfew imposed there. Curfew was imposed in Mendipathar and its adjoining areas of East Garo Hills district Monday night after an ethnic
clash between the Garo and Rabha tribal groups.
More than 30 houses belonging to the Rabha community were allegedly torched by Garos at Mendipathar Rabhapara village in retaliation for the recent attacks on Garos by Rabha youths, police said.
